Good morning everyone. I have to create this account to post this.
I can't even sleep at night lately.

I'm so tired and I need help right now. I have been doing this all by myself for so long now, without much complain but now, I need help.
Before I got married to my husband, I didn't know he had a seasonal mental health challenge, but not violent.

I met him in the university, he was in medicine, he had dreams, very ambitious, one of the best in his department, Working his way to travel abroad to continue his education. We were just friends, but I liked him. He kept on asking me out, but I declined. I wanted to graduate first.
We parted ways in year two. He changed school, so, I knew nothing about him again till years later.
Reconnected with him years later after graduation, to my greatest surprise, he didn't graduate, wasted all his resources and couldn't travel out. We still love each other, so we got married.
after the birth of my first child, I wanted to leave him, but I couldn't because he was a good man, but with too many changes and I was the only one who truly care and was there for him.
Three years ago, he became much better. He got a small job, Started bringing in little for upkeep. I saw change and I was happy. We had our second child last year after 8yrs.
Since early this year, the whole thing came up again. Since then, he became jobless again.
The financial burden is all on me. Right now, we can't afford to renew our rent.
I lost my business capital some times ago in wrong business, since then, it has been so much struggles.

I'm trying hard but it's not enough.
I'm thinking of working away, but to where? what about my children? Who will be there for them? What about him? But I'm tired of being in a marriage where I have to struggle for everything, where I can not depend on my man.
Pls, help us renew our house rent.

What do I do?




Just because he is now jobless and you are the breadwinner then he is mentally deranged.
Women and their attitude.
Madam you are the person pushing him to that point.
From the way you sounded here with statements like; he wasted all his resources pursuing abroad dreams, how you have been handling all finances, it his obvious you have denied him peace and pushed him to the point of depression with your mouth.
I have seen similar situations and almost nearly experienced one myself.
This your own side of the story is designed to paint you the perfect one and him the useless one. Remains his own side and the truth,
Until then stop frustrating the guy man.

Please this is not necessary here. If you can't console her, it's better you don't add to her problem with this disturbing claim
jeromestarks:
Handle your problem alone.
You rejected good men who approached you when you were younger and beautiful to marry this mentally retardant.
You chose your destiny. You should suffer it alone.

Never pity a woman who is suffering in her home. Good men came for her but she rejected them saying "he's too short, he doesn't have money, he's to tall, he doesn't have a car etc" and settled for a guy who used suya to bribe her.

Many women wished the men they rejected came back. But guess what, none will come back.

Re: I'm Tired, My Husband Is Mentally Challenged by TheGift: 1:58pm On Jul 30, 2023
So sorry to hear about this. Especially as you have been trying all by yourself.

I don't have any advise for you now beyond not giving up on a brighter tomorrow for you, your children and even your husband wether he remains so or not.

I pray for wisdom guidance and break through very soon.

"Reconnected with him years later after graduation, to my greatest surprise, he didn't graduate, wasted all his resources and couldn't travel out. We still love each other, so we got married".

Madam are you sure you are ok. You married someone who wasted his resources and didn't graduate. Na jazz??

"after the birth of my first child, I wanted to leave him, but I couldn't because he was a good man,"

You wanted to leave because of the issue but didn't and instead decided to drop another baby.

"Three years ago, he became much better. He got a small job, Started bringing in little for upkeep. I saw change and I was happy. We had our second child last year after 8yrs.
Since early this year, the whole thing came up again".


What is the mental issue exactly??!

What a mean response,
You could read where She stated that he is still a good person.

Put yourself in her shoes and think about it.

The fact that you might have been rejected by some ladies doesn't mean those ladies that rejected will become miserable in life.
Know this and be rational.

Sadly, you married the man for the wrong reasons. You do not choose a husband based on emotions alone.
You married him primarily because you felt ‘in love’?! That is not supposed to be the primary reason to be married to a man. You can date or have a fling because of love, but you don’t marry because of love. You marry because you have a man you can respect, be loyal to and submit to, and this man MUST be competent and capable of protecting, providing for and loving you. Love from you should be a secondary offshoot of this complex but fundamental mix.
Sadly, the marriage is flawed and likely doomed. You can keep the marriage for your kids sake, but if it is about your long term happiness, you have to restrategize, with several loses for you here and there. It looks like the man is incapable of being a husband long term and you may have to move on if you want your sanity to be sustained. However, moving on comes at a huge cost and consequence too. Both scenarios are not in your favor.
You will have to bear the huge consequences of bad decisions. I think you should approach your religious organization and family for financial help too. I don’t think random online Nigerians are capable of helping you financially and long term.
I pray that God will guide you in the right path. Good luck!

I'm wondering if you're suffering from depression ... a form of mental illness. I am trying to understand how he was top student in the university but never graduated ..... and no warning bells went off in your head to make you find out why. Do you know if he was into drugs? ... that can cause mental illness? ... or is it that you were blinded by his potential and lofty dreams? At this point ... nothing in your write up has shown you are interested in getting to the root of the problem you described. But everything has pointed to the solution .... money ... which is unrelated to mental illness. This write up is about getting money to pay your rent .... all you wrote about him is unnecessary ... but we are so programmed to be deceptive that we can never tell the bitter truth .... it must be hidden in a mountain of lies.

Dear sister, turn over the burden to the Lord and trust him for solution.

I can feel your pain but, God knows all things if he has allowed it just trust him to see you through. He is the burden bearer Matthew 11:28, just ensure you give your life to him and let him be your Lord and personal saviour, that is all and hand over the challenges to him.

You want to leave the man now because he is jobless and can't provide. You're basically carrying the family and you see it as burden.

Men carry their jobless wife and children without anybody hearing about it. Women always play the victim card. Smh

Seek spiritual help. From my experience, whenever a great potential turns to great disappointment, unexplainably, unexpectedly, it had spiritual undertone.

It wrong for a woman to be left to struggle for the upkeep of the whole family alone fie a long period of time cos it should be a joint effort bt there are special situations that may cause thos to be the case.

I would like to however ask what about his family? and ur family?

Why didn't u get adequate knowledge of whom and what u were getting into or was it hidden from u by him and his family?

Why didn't u ask the right questions like why he didn't graduate and other stuffs cos marriage I believe is a big step and we must ask all necessary questions and get satisfactory answers to over forward.

Now the situation is beyond ur control and his family and ur family aren't there to support u?

Is he getting medical help to manage his problem and what is the hope for a fully recovery or fairly normal life?

it is important to be honest with ur partner b4 entering marriage.

The best place to take him to is a specialist psychiatrist
And if he is given medication, supervise him to ensure he takes it in the RIGHT quantity and time

By the way, God does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous; the prayers, praises, vows, offerings, tithes, gifts, petitions, etc., of the unrighteous are made filthy by their sins and are hence an unholy abomination to God. You would have faired better if you had both first focused on making sure he got his daily treatment instead. It is not too late to start.
